- 7 Jun 2012 9:00 AM
Two of the paintings that were stolen from a Buda flat in March have been found, Budapest Police announced on Wednesday. The two paintings found are Válaszút (Crossroads) by Béla Kádár and that of an unidentified Dutch painter.
The Kádár painting was found wrapped in nylon and hidden among bushes in a ditch at kilometre stone 32 near Route 5 on the outskirts of Budapest. It will probably require restoration.
Two men from Budapest accused of the thefts were caught and arrested in late April.
